Yours

Till the soil of my

Heart.

Make it fertile for your

Word.

 

Growth.

Change.

May they be known by no other name

In my life, but

Yours.

 

Let the rain pour down

If it is required to

See the bud of

New Life.

 

It is refreshing.

It is frightening.

Yet it can be

Weathering,

Wilting,

Tiring.

 

This stalk is ready to burst up

From these roots you planted.

 

Whatever is required!

Whatever is required!

I will know it by no other name

In my life, but

Yours.

 

Even if you must

Wreck

The stalk,

The roots,

The buds,

Anything.

 

Harvest it,

Tear it off,

Replace it.

 

Whatever is required!

Whatever is required!

I will know it by no other name

in my life, but

Yours.

 

The end result -

The flower,

Me,

The way you've always meant for it to be.

I will know it by no other name

in my life, but

Yours.
